Update: Christine DeTroy from Brunswick, Maine called and told me she read this poem at the rally on Saturday, June 30 opposing Trump's separation of refugee children from their parents. The speaker that followed Christine at the rally was Sen. Angus King (I-ME). I had a big laugh to hear that King had to listen to my poem.
